Mechanical Engineer-OEM

Full-time

BYD

The following description is not intended as an exhaustive list of all responsibilities, duties and skills required of personnel so classified. Management retains the discretion of adding or changing the duties of the position at any time.
About the Role
We're looking for a Mechanical Engineer who brings a strong foundation in mechanical or manufacturing engineering and thrives in a customer-facing, product-driven role. This is a unique opportunity for someone who understands how things are made—but is equally comfortable engaging with clients, coordinating across departments, and driving products from idea to mass production.
Key Responsibilities
Own the end-to-end mechanical component lifecycle—from concept validation through to mass production—focused on enclosures and structural parts.
Act as a technical liaison between internal teams (design, procurement, sales) and external stakeholders (customers, suppliers, factories).
Collaborate with clients to define product requirements, ensuring feasibility across design, cost, and manufacturing capabilities.
Support business development teams by offering technical insights during customer meetings, RFQ responses, and project scoping.
Translate technical needs into action plans, guiding suppliers and contract manufacturers to align with quality, cost, and timeline expectations.
Perform mechanical feasibility assessments including Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) reviews.
Oversee supplier coordination, particularly for processes such as CNC machining, metal forming, die-casting, and surface finishing.
Contribute to pricing strategies by analyzing material costs, process efficiencies, and competitive benchmarks.
Lead or support new product introduction (NPI) activities, ramp-up phases, and factory readiness initiatives.
Stay up to date on manufacturing trends, technologies, and customer needs across consumer electronics and related sectors.
Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related discipline.
3–5 years of experience in mechanical product development or project engineering—ideally in an OEM or manufacturing environment for consumer electronics.
Hands-on exposure to mass production methods such as CNC, stamping, casting, and surface treatment processes.
Strong familiarity with CAD (e.g., SolidWorks, Creo, or similar), including basic understanding of GD&T.
Proven experience working with contract manufacturers and component suppliers across Asia.
Demonstrated ability to manage customer relationships, interpret requirements, and drive product realization.
Willingness to travel to manufacturing partners and client sites as needed.
